We now know when Samsung is launching the Galaxy Z Fold 3, Flip 3, and a new S21 model

For the first time since 2011, Samsung won’t have a new Galaxy Note in stores this year. Samsung blamed the chip shortage for the phone’s untimely cancelation, but the writing was already on the wall. Starting with the Galaxy S8 in 2017, Samsung launched phones with bigger and bigger displays thanks to advances in technology that allowed all-screen designs. The fingerprint sensors were placed under the screen, the bezels lost a few imperceptible millimeters each year, and the selfie cam ended up piercing through the screen. The Galaxy S21 Ultra is also the first S-series phone to feature S Pen support. The Note’s days were numbered.

Samsung plans to replace the Galaxy Note 20 with three different devices, which will give users plenty of choices. And at least one of them might sport S pen compatibility. That’s the Galaxy Z Fold 3, which could be considered the logical Note successor — it’s supposed to feature both a bigger display than all other phones and stylus support. The Flip 3 and the S21 FE are also launching this summer. A report from Korea says the three phones will be introduced in August, which is the Note’s traditional launch window.
